Where: * TTI-C Conference Room #526*, 6045 S Kenwood Ave
Who: * **John Goldsmith*, University of Chicago, Depts of
Computer Science and Linguistics
Title: * **Unsupervised learning of natural language
morphology*
We will explore methods of unsupervised learning of segmentation of words
into their component morphs and morphemes, given a text in a standard
orthography or a phonemic representation from an unknown language. We will
examine some of the strengths and weaknesses of an MDL-based approach to
this problem, and ask what this kind of work could tell us about the nature
of linguistic analysis.
